10 years ago I covered the death of Rebecca McManus, killed by a car driver racing at speeds up to 100mph.
He was jailed for 8 years - then freed after 4, before caught committing more driving offences.
Spoke to her friend Harriet Barnsley ✍️ for this one:

“I feel I have made peace with him. I had to if I wanted to move on with my life. He’s already done his damage, I can’t let him continue to ruin my life.”
This is the first time I've ever tried to do this, and I recorded my first attempt. So here is the raw version. It feels good to have finally started this healing process.

'No punishment will ever be enough.. I don't know how they'll ever stop him from breaking more rules of the road.. something more needs to be done to deter this kind of behaviour, & dangerous driving in general. It just doesn't seem to be taken seriously” birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-…
Treated myself to a private pole fitness lesson for Christmas 💁🏻♀️
It was knackering and painful, and I will definitely be back for more.

Dear Orna Merchant, you're a great travel presenter on BBC Radio 5 Live.
I'd love it if you used the term 'Collision' instead of 'Accident'.
There is generally no such thing as an accident.
Crashes & collisions happen because people make bad decisions. twitter.com/HarrietBarnsle…
